PSP uses some special kind of disc, that would make it pretty difficult for emulator makers to figure out. N-Gage shouldn't be that tough. Though, I don't know of any projects on it. DS hasn't been distributed to the public yet, so it's chances are unknown at this point.

AFAIK, N-Gage doesn't need to be emulated because all the games are Java. So any computer with Java runtimes can run them without an emulator. Or at least that's what I heard. Anyway... I doubt N-Gage would get emulated anyway since it's complete lack of popularity and utter fKitten Yiffer on the market.

My money would go on Nintendo DS... since Nintendo systems seem to get the most attention by emulator aurthos. Not to mention there's been more hype about it.

Hard to say...
-Ngage is crappy and unpopular, so it's not gonna get much work done. It's probably possible to run the games with a bit of tweaking (or even without) to the Java runtimes though, so an emulator's not necessary. Also, let's not forget that it's already been out for a while, if there's no emu at least in development now, there probably won't be.
-PSP, if it even comes out (it's been due for what, 2 years now) is probably no more than, as the name implies, a portable PSX, perhaps with some simple upgrades. Not to mention, Playstation emus never seem to get very advanced, at least not that fast.
-DS is popular, and it's Nintendo. All the focus in the emu scene seems to be on Nintendo. There was a GBA emu before there was a GBA. Safe to say we'll see similar results with DS, though the 3D and advanced stuff might make it difficult, and Nintendo will do all they can to prevent it.

Nintendo DS. N-gage doesn't need to be emulated, and Playstation emulators take forever to develop... I'm not sure if I've seen a real good one yet.

N-Gage has very little popularity and seems kinda useless given how the games are floating around, ready to be used on compatible phones. The PSP will likely be too complex. The DS is ripe for the picking. Lots of people will experiment with it, don't worry.

N-Gage, as crappy as it is, is the most feasable.
BTW, how will one emulate a touch screen for the DS?...
